ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The Savannah Bananas, an exhibition team known for "circus antics" and a "fast-paced, rowdy version of baseball," are coming to Tropicana Field in March of next year.
The Bananas will play the Party Animals in St. Pete on March 15 and 16, according to the team's schedule. These two games are part of the team's 2025 World Tour, which will see them also make stops at Loan Depot Park in Miami on March 1 and 2 and Atlanta on the 29 and 30.
Next year's world tour will see the Bananas visit a total of 18 MLB stadiums and three football stadiums.
Those interested in seeing the Bananas in action should know that the team has a lottery ticket system, meaning you can't buy a ticket unless your name is called. To enter the drawing, click here.
The Savannah Bananas aren't your average baseball team. They're known for their brand of "Banana Ball," which the team describes as "the fastest and most entertaining game of baseball," complete with choreographed dances, over-the-top scoring celebrations and crowd interactions."
The team first arrived in Savannah, Georgia in October of 2015 with the goal "to make baseball fun and bring back fans to Historic Grayson Stadium," their official website reads. Now, nearly a decade later, the Savannah Bananas have reportedly sold out every single game since their first season.
"There's no crying in baseball, but there are a lot of laughs when the Savannah Bananas bring their circus antics to the ballpark," CBS News said in their review of the team.
The Bananas stopped in Tampa earlier this year with several sellout performances.
